Toyota Releases stickerfix DIY Paint Care Product

As the technology evolves, the vehicles repairs that don’t require a visit to a specialist tend to reach absolute 0. However, the list of new developments also brings new ways in which vehicle owners can take care of their cars. The latest product of this kind comes from Toyota’s European arm, which is introducing the Toyota stickerfix, a new do-it-yourself vehicle cosmetic repair product that is aimed at dealing with minor scrapes and scratches.

“Every colour on offer with Toyota stickerfix is matched to Toyota’s master plates to ensure the best possible match, and covers the entire colour range for Toyota vehicles in Europe. A new Toyota stickerfix solution will be available with every new colour introduced to the range,” a company statement reads.

The product is offered in A5-sized sheets of high adhesive film, pre-cut into 33 different shapes and sizes.

Toyota is instructing us to use three steps to perform minor bodywork fixes:

• Clean – make sure the area of application is clean
• Stick – affix the adhesive film to the desired area
• Smooth – gently smooth out the area to give it a shiny new look

“Toyota stickerfix compliments other products in the Toyota Genuine Car Care range with products from easy application touch up paint sticks to more professionally driven aerosol paints.Removing the Toyota stickerfix product is as simple as applying it. Customers need only apply heat to the product on their Toyota vehicles with a domestic hairdryer and lift the adhesive film away from the vehicle surface at a 90-degree angle,” explains the press release.

The product is available in Toyota’s European showrooms, as part of a protection pack for new and used Toyota cars, retailing for a price of EUR29.
